the ntsb says it's not looking into the fuel leak which j.a.l. officials are deeming a mechanical problem. and boston airport officials say there was no leak in the fuel tank, but the plane was venting fuel, which is the aircraft's way to dump excess fuel. but it's not usually seen on the runway. so after four hours, the dreamliner was checked out and cleared to fly. now, the japanese government told cnn they have asked airlines to inspect planes for battery problems that could cause a fire similar to monday's incident. and united airlines told cnn as well, it inspected all their 787s after monday's fire but would not elaborate on their findings. and just this morning as you mentioned, an all-nippon airways dreamliner canceled a flight abuse of an electrical problem with the alert messaging system involving the brakes. >> i just want to know if it's safe to ply on a 787. is it? >> i think it is. you know, it's a pretty new plane. there's a lot of kinks to be worked out, and these are kind of minor mechanical electrical problems. i sat in the cock
